Verizon LG Enlighten has received a new software update. Before you run for the Champagne, you should probably know that this isn’t Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich. It’s just a small, but possibly important update.

Device Features

A Google Security Patch has been added to improve the security level.

Google Books is now preloaded.

Reduced device resets while in idle mode.

Improved video viewing when receiving multimedia messages.

That’s it, folks. The software update reaches your Verizon LG Enlighten over-the-air at which point the phone will notify you to download and install it. If you’re impatient, go to Settings > About phone > System updates and manually check if the update is available for you. After applying the update, your phone will run software version VS700ZV5.
